Yemen-based graphic designer Mohamed Aljaadaby has come up with an interesting project that features typographic wordmark logos of cities in the shape of their famous monuments and landmarks.
For example, the logo for Sydney is the word ‘Sydney’ warped in the shape of the Opera House. The logo for Athens is the Acropolis with the word ‘Athens’ in the negative space between the pillars. The logo for Agra is in the shape of the Taj Mahal, and so on. Check out the project below.
